From 1962 till 1987 working at coastal station Scheveningenradio/PCH as radiotelephony- and -telegraphy-operator.

Radio-radarengineer during my military service on dutch aircraftcarrier Karel Doorman/pada.

Since 2009 working as radioamateur with Yaesu 450 with a maximum power of 100W. Normally I use only pwr between 35 and 50 watts.

My antennas are at the moment. 2 hy end fed antennas one for multiband 10m, 20m and 40m. One monoband antenne for 15m. The other bands I cover with my solid antenna-tuner Palstar. It works very good with this antenna-park.

My old self built antenne I used for 2 years for DXis very usefull for experiments.

My qsl-policy is as follows: From 1-1-2012 I send a QSL-card via bureau at request by sending me your own qsl-card. Further on I prefer LOTW and E-qsl. Please don't send qsl-cards when we contacted in contests.
